Selling a property can be a
stressful and expensive process for many homeowners. The thought of having to pay a hefty commission fee to a real estate agent is often a major concern. However, there is an alternative option which helps you and me –
selling your property for as little as 2% commission.Traditionally, real estate agents charge a commission fee of 5-8% of the final sale price of a property. This means that if you sell your property for R1,200,00, you would have to pay a commission fee of R60 000 - R96 000. This amount can significantly eat into your profits and can be a major deterrent for many homeowners who are looking to sell their property. Whilst selling for only 2% means you are left with a significant amount of money that can be used towards other expenses such as moving costs or home repairs.
We have come up with
4 options giving you the opportunity to decide which one
best meets your needs.
Sell for 8%, 6%, 4% or, the best and most popular option, 2% commission.
With the option of selling your property for only 2% commission, both parties – the seller and the real estate agent – have to come to an agreement on the selling price and we have to be able to do 100% of our marketing plan (show houses, pamphlets etc.) to ensure no one's time is being wasted.
Another advantage of this option is the motivation it creates for the real estate agent. With a lower commission fee, the agent has to
work harder to sell the property in a shorter time frame. This can result in a more proactive and dedicated approach to selling the property, which can lead to a
quicker sale and a higher selling price.Selling a property for 2% commission also allows for more flexibility in terms of pricing. With a traditional 5-8% commission, the agent may be more inclined to push for a higher selling price in order to increase their commission. However, with a lower commission fee, the agent is more likely to work with the seller to find a fair and realistic selling price that will attract potential buyers.
It is important to note that selling a property for 2% commission does not mean that the agent will provide a lower level of service. In fact, many agents who offer this option are experienced and qualified professionals who are just as capable of selling a property as those who charge a higher commission fee. The only difference is the cost savings for the seller
In conclusion, selling your property for 2% commission can be a beneficial option for both the seller and the real estate agent. It offers
cost savings for the seller and
motivates the agent to work harder to sell the property. However, it is important for both parties to communicate effectively and come to an agreement on the selling price and time frame. With this option, selling a property can be a less stressful and more affordable process.
